Is bleeding 12 days after a Rhinoplasty normal?

Mk313
I had a rhinoplasty 12 days ago and hardly had any pain or bruising with no issues. Until yesterday and today when my nose starts pouring out blood. It comes out fast and rapidly and I can feel it going down my throat as well. I was told to try affrin. The first time it worked after about 20 mins but today it wouldn't stop. The surgeon packed my nose today to put pressure inside to stop the bleeding. Is this random bleeding normal ?
